Abstract
Based on the concept of cultural heritage authenticity, this study addresses key challenges such as insufficient semantic clarity and limited adaptability in the digitalization of cultural resources. It proposes a three-stage digitalization pathway: "cognitive authenticity, recording authenticity, expressive authenticity," and develops a structured methodological framework for applying digitalized cultural resources to design contexts. Using traditional Chinese doors and windows as case studies, the research systematically undertakes semantic identification, three-dimensional data acquisition, and semantic modeling of cultural elements, subsequently establishing a knowledge representation mechanism that facilitates creative generation. Through the "data-tool-design" process, this study demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed framework in digitally transforming cultural heritage by integrating digital cultural resources into the creative design industry.

Digitalization Methods of Design Cultural Resources from the Perspective of Authenticity: A Case Study of Traditional Chinese Doors and Windows
